Real Startups: Turning Lean Startup Theory into Practice with Tristan Kromer

Sponsored by CUNA Mutual Group

Big , bold, risky, ideas require small steps forward.

Lean Startup is full of buzzwords and jargon that is beyond confusing and hard to apply inside a startup. If you build it, will they come (and give you money)? At the end of the day, a customer has to pay for your product or you won’t have a business.

This free workshop will focus on how to identify the biggest business model risks in a startup and choose the right experiment or research method to make progress.

In this workshop you will:

• Ask questions that matter most to your market/customer and product

• Have a framework for choosing experiment/research methodologies to use in practice
